Anchoring a Deck

Print VersionBookmarkEmail this page to a friend.
If you're building a backyard deck, you want to be sure it's secure on its foundation. Set a threaded bolt into your concrete footing. Then attach a post anchor base. Adjust it to receive your deck post. Use a washer and nut to secure the base. Finally, cover with a base plate. This will protect the porch post from rot.
